God blessed me

The young pastor

It was a snowy night in the beginning of December, where the lights are shining and the trees are dressed with lumps of ice. It was the time of year where people came around church to celebrate the upcoming Christmas holiday and the birth of Jesus Christ. 

A particular young man who stormed up the excitement of church, Craig Tucker, a pastor who was very popular in town, known for singing his soul out about the lord. People admired him for his beautiful voice and faithful lyrics, his love for the church and help bring together peace among the city of South Park.

It was an important night for Craig as it was an important holiday performance at the local church. A foretell story of Jesus and a message to young children to always be grateful for those around them.

There was just one problem...

Craig was more nervous than usual.

The seats were loaded and even the door was open with a big crowd whom could not be seated but standing cheering for the talented boy.

"Woah..." came out Craig's mouth as his eyes took a peek behind the curtain. He gulped, "This is it, this is really it! I'm glad more and more people are finally coming for music for the lord but it's actually making me a bit nervous- No." He cut himself off and quickly ran to grab the mic.

"STARTING IN TWO MINUTES SON TUCKER!" shouted Father Maxi.

"Do it for god.", whispered Craig and he readily turns on the mic. He takes one last deep breathe and closes his eyes to regain all his confidence. He clears his throat,

"GOOD EVENING LADIES AND GENTLEMEN AND CHILDREN WHO CAME TO OPEN THEIR HEARTS TO SALVATION " Craig shouted into his mic after the curtains raised upward and followed by a cheering crowd.

As Craig began his first song, he couldn't help but to gaze upon the crowd, losing himself in the music. His glory fulfilled voice echoed in the room and made many children tear up.

It was until the middle of the performance, he saw an usual figure by the door that made his eyes wide open while singing a ballad. Their eyes met and scared the weird looking figure away as it seemed as it did something bad.

"What the heck was that?", Craig wondering if that strange thing had something up its sleeve. He felt an evil presence but he held back as he knew that the show must go on.

Craig finished the night with his last song and wished the crowd well as the thought of the strange aura bounced up his mind again. He ran quickly to the back to make sure everything was in touch but everything seem to be in place. It lead him to pack up his things and change his outfit to his casual blue jacket and his puffy yellow balled hat.

He threw his backpack onto himself and began walking towards the back door. He suddenly stops and looks at his reflection of the mirror.

"You did a good job today but I don't know....was it all in my head?" He looked at himself with a doubtful face.

He sighed while opening the door. "GOODBYE FATHER MAXI! THANK YOU AGAIN FOR LETTING ME PERFORM FATHER!" Craig yelled before exiting.

"WAIT!", Quickly responded Father Maxi.

He ran towards Craig and lost his breathe. "C-Craig, thank you for taking your time to perform here. I really appreciate- but hey have you seen of the bottle of sacramental wine?" 

Craig pauses, "It's no problem for me, and no I haven't seen it in a while. Did you misplace it?"

Maxi nodded no and sighs deeply, "You know what? Have a good night rest and we will worry about it tomorrow morning. Forgive me for stopping your farewell, goodnight son"

"It's so cold...", Craig spoke to himself while walking home in a snowy night.

"I should of wore something warmer than this", He shivers and stop for a second.

A sound rings in his ears.

"LET US CALL UPON THIS - "
"SHUT UP YOU DUMBASS. KEEP YOUR FUCKING VOICE DOWN WOULD YA?"

Two men argued from a couple of meters from where Craig was standing at.

Baffled with curiosity Craig couldn't help but walk toward the voice and it only led him to something dangerous as every step he took he realized a glowing light of fire and even more strange figures appeared.

Craig gasped as he couldn't believe his eyes. He quickly hid behind a couple of bushes that were a few feet away from this odd scene.

"A ritual?" He thought to himself.

"Hey did you guys hear that?" one mysterious person asked.

"No, but it was probably the wind or something" the other responded

Scaring the crap outta Craig, he couldn't think of a way to get up and run towards his house as any loud nose will sure to get him in some real trouble...
